Features

The Wordle Solver is designed to:

  • Accept a guessed 5-letter word and feedback for each letter.
  • Narrow down possible solutions by updating a regex pattern according to the feedback.
  • Suggest possible words until the final solution is identified.

Technologies Used

  • Python 3.6+
  • Regular Expressions (Regex) for pattern matching.
  • A custom-modified Spanish dictionary from this repository for a 5-letter word list without accent marks.

How It Works

  1. Input: Users enter a guessed word and feedback using:
    • + for correct letter in the correct position.
    • ? for correct letter but incorrect position.
    • - for incorrect letter.
  2. Regex Generation: Based on feedback, the program generates a regex pattern to filter potential words.
  3. Suggestions and Solution: The program suggests potential words until only one remains.

Getting Started

  1. Ensure Python 3.6+ is installed.

  2. Place a dict.txt file in the same directory, containing 5-letter Spanish words.

  3. Run the script in a terminal:

    python wordle_solver.py

  4. Enter your guessed 5-letter word and the feedback for each letter

    Enter your guessed word (5 letters): animo
Enter the result (+ for green, ? for yellow, - for gray): ?----
There are 2059 possible words
Suggested next word:  leuda

  5. Continue entering words and feedback until the program suggests the final word.

    Enter your guessed word (5 letters): leuda
Enter the result (+ for green, ? for yellow, - for gray): ??--? 
There are 109 possible words
Suggested next word:  rasel
Enter your guessed word (5 letters): rasel
Enter the result (+ for green, ? for yellow, - for gray): -????
Possible words:  ['clase', 'ellas', 'glase']
Enter your guessed word (5 letters): glase
Enter the result (+ for green, ? for yellow, - for gray): -++++
The final word is:  clase
